while it still remains a good idea to port as many NULL compares and assignments over to nullPtr as feasable, we do still need to sort out how to better support scripted empty, false, and zero assigns for things like objectIDs.
this means we'll need to both fully convert the backend of the parser to support that kind of thing, but also alter most if not all exisiting NULLs. up to and including things like SAFE_DELETE. while that's certainly feasable, given there's aproximatel 400 nullptr assigns/checks prior to this commit, and roughly 1800 of the prior, if it terminates in a script call and not an aip one direct, we'll be dialing that back until such time as fork fully fopcused on converting and resolving any lingering mismatches is completed.
note this *does* require a baked skylight in the main scene
todo: track down why a similar protocol does not operate for guimaterialpreview and guiobjectview
cliffsnotes:
$Core::WetnessTexture = "core/rendering/images/wetMap.png"; //for the influence degree map
probes/skylight have a new canDamp boolean, set to off for probes, on for skylight by default.
:levelinfo has a dampness multiplier (0-1)
kicked up numTextures from 8 to 16 for shaderdata and postfx since that hit the 8 texture-in prior limit, and we've already adopted apis that can handle the higher count
Also fixes handling of metal materials during bakes to render properly, and fixes a possible double-up return in findObjectByType, which could cause doubling when getting probes in the scene
Fixed multiple case sensitivity issues
Adds GL ARB check for cubemap arrays for certain cases where the driver only supports the extension, not as core
Fixes undeeded namespace declaration in an inline operator function
Cleaned up/reordered some modules default in the data dir
WIP of Das Boot test map
Begun refactoring visualizer tools
Added default cloud and water textures to core/rendering so water and cloud objects work correctly
Added default Fog_Cube mesh so volumetric fog works correctly
Separated baked cubemap load/processing logic into a separate function for clarity
various corrections for when fields change so it properly notifies down to the client
Fixed enable flag logic to actually work
Fixed skylight enable flag so it properly disables if flipped off
Reworked the reflection reference offset/scale behavior to re-integrate into the editor interface via button(and work)
Hid irrelevent fields from given probe types.
Filter out editPosOffset and bake button fields from being saved to avoid weird loading behavior
Temporarily disabled logic for forward render of probes to avoid data mangle. TODO: fix up forward once deferred math is locked in
Split probe modes out into distinct environmental probe objects
Removed the probes from tracking their own baked cubemap file paths and instead have a pref store it
Removed old probe shaders and materials that aren't used now.
Fixed mLastConst memory leak by removing nono line.
